Minnesota criminal law is complicated to say the least. There are a number of different crimes that classify as a criminal offense, all with different sentences and circumstances.  Furthermore, there are a number of court systems you could be up against including the Minnesota Drug Courts, the Minnesota Court of Appeals, or the Federal Court System.

If you are found guilty of a criminal offense you could be facing prison time, hefty fines, restitution to the victim, community service, among other things. Whatever the case, any type of criminal conviction will go onto your criminal record negatively impacting the rest of your life.
